Organic sacha inchi powder, sachi inchi nuts/snacks and sacha inchi oil, sourced from the Amazon Rainforest of Peru and traditionally cultivated by small farmers and farming cooperatives, we offer you this nutritional powerhouse in bulk for your convenience.
Discover Sacha Inchi, or the "Inca nut," as it's known in the Quechua language. This seed, native to Peru's Amazon rainforest, offers a nutrient-dense profile that is hard to beat.
Cultivated on acidic soil near water bodies by indigenous communities for thousands of years, Sacha Inchi's star-shaped fruit turns dark brown when ripe. The seeds within these fruits are nutritional powerhouses, boasting an Omega-3 oil content 17 times that of salmon and all eight essential amino acids.
Our process involves drying and sorting the nuts, followed by cold-pressing the Sacha Inchi seeds into a cake. This method ensures maximum nutrient preservation. The oils are then filtered off to produce Sacha Inchi oil, while the pressed cake is pulverized into a fine powder.
